You know what we need, folks?

If you guessed "The Second Annual Ladies CD Swap partay", you're right! Have a cookie! [Or you know, whatever you'd rather have than a cookie. Think about Supersize Me and go get a cheeseburger!]

Yeah. While this is slightly complicated for me by the fact that my CD burner has just moved out of my house, I think it's that time again, ladies [and people of any gender who are down with the Second Annual Ladies CD Swap].

Here's the 411:
1. You pick a bunch of songs by women artists [or woman-dominated bands, or trans artists, or other artists who make sense to you] that you want to share with other rock-out feminists.
2. You put these songs on CDs.
3. I email you a list of addresses, and you send your CD to everyone on the list.

Last year it was all about the March. This year I challenge everyone to somehow connect that spirit of empowerment to something else on a lot of our minds: breakup music.

So, yeah. Who's in?

It's Tim from the BBC TV show "The Office." I am planning to make a new me-with-nose-ring icon later today but in the meantime I was feeling terribly office-y....

Hmm... damn. It's times like these I shake my head at my male-dominated music collection...

That might be a kindof interesting challenge - could you make a viably feminist mix with a breakupish theme out of your mostly dudeified CD collection?

Surely you're not too much of a wimpus to try.

Most of my favorite breakup songs are by dudes, and decidedly useless unless you mentally reverse the genders. Which I do, by the way. One Johnny-Cash-heavy mix CD, comin' right up... ;)

I don't have the resources to join in but can I suggest someone look up 'Ciao!' by Lush w/Jarvis Cocker? That's my #1 breakup song.

I think my meager song collection might not be up to the challenge... BUT I'm teaming up with [livejournal.com profile] cjbb87c, so we're IN!!
